Hi all, I wanted to create a way for individual users to relicense their data under difference licenses. Since OSM and derivatives are OAuth capable, it is possible to authenticate a user and get them to agree to a license. This can be stored in a machine readable format. I hope this will be useful in transferring data between forks, particularly if a significant number of people chose permissive licenses. From what I can tell, most mappers pretty much agree to any license they are presented with. :) http://timsc.dev.openstreetmap.org/extralicenses/ At this stage, I was hoping for ideas for improvements of the legal issues. Any thoughts?
